Portrayal in Adaptations

Lindir is portrayed by Bret McKenzie. He welcomes Gandalf and the party of Dwarves to Rivendell in place of Elrond, who is hunting, and later reports to Lord Elrond that Thorin and his companions have departed in secret. [2] McKenzie also appeared in The Lord of the Rings (film series) as Figwit, but it is unclear if Lindir is intended to be that character or not.
